Company nominations:
Did you know, your company can support PANS PANDAS UK too! Could you ask your workplace, business or management team to consider choosing us as their nominated charity? Company nomination schemes allow employees to suggest charities for their company to support, whether through a corporate foundation, charity of the year scheme, direct grants or a matched-giving programme.
Companies are keen to support charities that matter to their employees, giving their staff a say in the choice of the beneficiaries of their corporate social responsibility programmes. Each company will have its own nomination, application and vetting process but essentially there should be an opportunity to promote the work of PANS PANDAS UK and to help us secure much-needed funds.
How we use the funds you raise:
We appreciate the hard work, dedication and commitment that goes into fundraising for PANS PANDAS UK, and it is important to us that we use your funds responsibly. Every penny that you raise will be used to provide support and information for families affected by PANS or PANDAS. Together, we will raise awareness, campaign for change and push for better research.
Thank you for your support, from everyone at PANS PANDAS UK
